DIRECT NAVIGATION: FIND, NOT SEARCH

InformationStart.com specialises in Direct Navigation. Direct Navigation enables you to bypass search engines. Typing a search term as an URL in your address bar, leads to a site specifically designed for that topic.

For example: you could use a search engine to find a hotel in Qatar, but typing the URL www.HotelsinQatar.com in the address bar of your internet browser is a more direct way of finding what you are looking for.

DOMAIN NAME LEASING

If the price of a domain exceeds your budget, you could consider leasing one of our domains. Leasing rates start from 10 USD per month, depending on the selling price. The leasing rate is agreed to in advance and the client who is leasing a domain has an option to purchase the domain name at any time. A portion of the lease payments are used as credit towards the purchase price. The lease fees can be paid monthly, quarterly or yearly. We offer discounts of up to 15% when you pay annually in advance. The leasing agreement will give you the exclusive rights to the domain name over the period agreed in advance. For more information about domain name leasing, please contact us.

MULTIPLE WEBSITE STRATEGY

Our network of international websites enables us to promote your company in a unique way. We can for instance promote a hotel in Doha (the capital of Qatar) on HotelsinDoha.com, but also on HotelsinQatar.com and DohaMuseums.com, making optimum use of the different searching methods people use.

We own multiple domain names that lead to the same website. HotelsinQatar.NET leads to the HotelsinQatar.com and HotelsinMecca.com is a sister website of HotelsinMakkah.com
